Forrest Theatre, Philadelphia PA

Love the Forrest Theater. Always clean and friendly employees. Never had a bad seat and always a good play

What an amazing musical. You must see Dear Evan Hansen! The Forrest Theatre did such an amazing job. Cheers to the sound managers and their work. The whole production was wonderful

Very clean. Bathroom are small and hard to find. Men's room is up a steep flight of stairs. As usual their performance was top notch. Place had a friendly atmosphere.

We saw Dear Evan Hansen last night. Extremely moving performance, such a relevant show for modern society. The theater is beautiful!

Forrest Theater is one of those old world architectural marvels that stand the test of time. Sure, the seats are narrower and rows closer together so tall or fat people will find seating cramped (bring knee pads? !), just as at the Walnut St Theater and at the Mirriam (now called Miller). My first time ever inside was to see the Broadway cast performance of Dear Evan Hansen, and I was legitimately wowed by the well maintained interiors oozing old world charm. Most cities would kill to have one such theater venue and Philly has several that have survived to this day, Forrest is one of those.

Gone plenty of times to know it is always a great time and seats are always great on the balcony no matter which seats you pick.

If you're a holder of part of the Kimmel Center broadway series and you need to do a ticket exchange - it is pretty much impossible to do when the show is held at this theatre. The only phone number for tickets listed on the Forrest website is for Telecharge and when you call Telecharge they insist you have to call Kimmel member services. If you call Kimmel member services they tell you that you have to deal directly with the Forrest Theatre. Can someone contact me so I can exchange my ticket for my show on Friday?

Not as nice as it's sister place the Academy of Music but it is nice it's beautiful but it's not quite as comfortable when you're sitting in it.

Just saw Dear Evan Hansen here. Really beautiful venue and very clean. Ushers eere very kind and helpful. This was my 2nd show here. Will be happy to come back for more.

Comfortable seats. Not the best thesther for plder people. Floor is in an incline. My husband almost fell 3 times. Oklahoma boring

Saw Oklahoma there. Enjoyed the show. This is a beautiful theatre, however like many classic théâtres it was a bit cramped, especially for a guy with wide shoulders.

Attempted to buy 2 tickets online. Order was declined, saying my name or credit card or address is incorrect. Went back to try again. Same response. I gave up and was about to look elsewhere when my wife tells me the Theatre has now charged our account for 4 tickets.
Nothing worse than feeling scammed by what you think is a reputable place.
Now the wonderful task of getting my money back!

Intimate theatre in center city Philly. Good acoustics and comfortable, but tight seating throughout. An enjoyable place to watch a show.

Watched Hamilton here. Loved the theater, the play and will definitely be back here again soon.
